    Probability of Watch Issuance...20 percent

    SUMMARY...A threat for locally damaging wind may continue through
    late afternoon.

    DISCUSSION...While convection remains generally disorganized, a
    southeastward outflow surge has recently been noted in the ArkLaTex
    vicinity, with a 44 kt gust recently observed at Texarkana. Some
    heating and steepening of low-level lapse rates has occurred
    downstream of this outflow surge, and continued updraft development
    along the outflow is expected through late afternoon, as it moves
    through a moderately unstable and weakly capped environment.=20

    The 18Z SHV sounding continues to depict weak deep-layer shear, and
    some weakening of low-level flow has been noted in the SHV VWP. As a
    result, the ongoing storm cluster is expected to remain relatively disorganized. However, given the presence of a well-defined outflow
    moving through a warm and moist environment, at least localized
    instances of damaging wind will be possible through late afternoon.
